Traceable In-House Calibration Certificate for your FG-7000T-1 Digital Torque Gauge

Traceable In-House Calibration Certificate for your FG-7000T-1 Digital Torque Gauge

SHIMPO FG-7000T-1 Offers

The multiple-language FG-7000T's provide menu programming for easy selection and set-up of the instrument to your desired requirements. Data can be viewed on the screen, sent to the optional printer, or loaded to be analyzed and graphed on the free software program. In addition, the comparator output can be set up for integration of the instrument into a quality system for repetitive testing such as on a production line. The FG-7000T's robust housings are designed to fit perfectly in the operator's hand for portable testing. The large back-lit, 180° auto-reversible display, CW/CCW directional bar graph, combined with the dual labeled key pad allows for usage of the gauge in various positions while still being able to easily view and operate.

Features

  • Display operates in numerical or graph modes, both include a directional bar graph
  • Graph mode combined with set point tolerances provides instant recognition of process relation to upper and lower limits
  • Four Modes of Operation: Peak, First Peak Preset or Track Mode
  • Memory with group categorization to easily separate your tests for review and later download
  • Free software for viewing, graphing and analyzing data on PC
  • Large, Backlit, Auto-Reversible display with various icons of test status aids user during testing
  • Programmable High/Low tolerances combined with comparator NPN/PNP output allow usage in quality control production lines

Torque Test on a Stationary Bicycle Trainer

Training techniques for premier athletes are continually evolving in order to gain an edge. Various components make up a regimented training program with equipment being a key factor. The training equipment improvements help maximum results by making the workout as realistic and efficient as possible.

How it Works

One manufacturer of a stationary bicycle trainer has a patented mechanism that simulates real world feedback to the bicyclist. This innovator created a system that provides varying resistance which closely simulates realistic road riding conditions. As the bicyclist increases speed, the trainer increases resistance. The key operation provided for this simulation is a high-powered magnet located inside the roller drum beneath the tire. As the rider's output and speed increase, the magnets are drawn closer to the drum wall creating a progressively stronger resistance required to rotate the drum and thus bike tire.

  • Shimpo FG-7000T
    FG-7000T Series

During production, to examine proper calibration of the roller drum's resistance, the technicians used a 3 hp motor to replicate the rider's pedaling output and checked motor power output with a dynamometer. They then took Gauss measurements on the magnets to detect if the corresponding location on the drum was producing the anticipated power detected on the dyno. Due to the magnet's circular alignment with the roller drum, the calibration team decided that measuring the resistance torque of the drum could be a simpler means to calibrate the apparatus. The team chose a Nidec-Shimpo FG-7000T Digital Torque Gauge to handle the job. This hand-held torque measuring instrument offered an effective means to check units quickly with its large display, plus was easily portable to any production area they required a calibration test. Observing the test data, they were able to compare the increase of rotational torque of the roller drum to the work output required

The team found the Nidec-Shimpo FG-7000T Digital Torque Gauge provided a cost-effective and efficient means of consistently measuring their device's performance, reducing time in production significantly as well as ensuring their innovative, industry-leading stationary trainer would continue successful sales growth.
